Ana de Armas described Chandler Bing as “the very best English tutor” as she regarded again on her transfer to the U.S. and gave a shoutout to her father throughout her “Saturday Evening Dwell” monologue on Saturday.
The Oscar-nominated “Blonde” and “No Time to Die” star kicked off her monologue with a message in Spanish earlier than recalling how she didn’t know English previous to her transfer from Cuba to the U.S.
“I used to be 26 and I discovered English the way in which everybody who involves this nation does – by watching ‘Associates,’” she quipped.
“Who would have thought that the very best English tutor could be Chandler Bing. I imply, have a look at me now. May I be any higher at English?”
de Armas later mirrored on her difficulties as an actor studying English earlier than she joked about her time throughout a “How To Audition” class, a category she known as a “rip-off.”
“There was this line ‘I urge your pardon’ however I had by no means seen or heard that phrase so I believed this character was actually begging,” she defined.
“So after I did the road, I stated, ’I urge your pardon, give it to me.′”
de Armas, who touched on her “magical 12 months” together with her anticipation over turning into a U.S. citizen in three weeks, went on to explain how her “Arms of Stone” co-star Robert de Niro visited her father at work in Cuba.
“My dad was so pleased with me and he could be proud to see me at the moment standing on this stage. I really feel very fortunate to be right here,” de Armas stated.
